BACON! It seems to be that one food people miss when they go vegan, or plant based. I admittedly ate my fare share of turkey bacon back in the day, and have had my moments of missing that smokey, salty, crunchy element in certain recipe. Coconut bacon is great for topping salads, grit bowls, soups, or adding to any recipe that calls for crispy bacon. It’s easy to make, and pretty tasty! Don’t skip out on the liquid smoke, though. It is the key ingredient in making this mock bacon taste like the real deal.

Instructions:

Stir the coconut around on the pan, and continue baking for another 5 minutes or until the coconut is brown and crispy. Watch the coconut carefully to make sure it is not burning, as it can burn quickly.

Allow to cool, and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
